On certain models, the wire will need to
be inserted through the ground strap
opening and then into the bottom center
block opening. Insert the two side bare
wire tips into the lower left and the lower
right terminal block openings. Tighten
the screws until the wire is firmly
secured (35 to 50 inch-lbs.). Do not
over-tighten the screws since it could
damage the wires.
NOTE: ALUMINUM WIRING:
Aluminum building wire may be used
but it must be rated for the correct
amperage and voltage to make
connection. Connect wires according
to this Step 6 or Step 7 depending on
